robin hood specific forum?

A lot of hoodies use this site, noticed that there is not a robin hood specific forum on this fourm, maybe this could be incorporated?

PS - i am expecting sarcasm & laughter!!

I think thats by design.

Robin Hood's new owners, 'great british sports cars' posted on here a short while ago and were politely told where to go.

At least thats my impression.

would you admit to owning a robin hood





Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, Chardonnay in one hand, Tequila in the other, body bearing battle scars and totally worn out, screaming- WOO HOO!! What a Ride!

At least a section to include Robin Hood, Duttons and any other without a dedicated section?

I think its a good idea to expand with more dedicated areas, in fact the best information seems to come from the lower end of the kit market.

Just had a dissagreement with the moderators on the RHOCAR forum brought about by their over enthusiastic deletion and control of threads.
It probably didn't help when i suggested that the moderators are having their danglies stroked by RH!
The builders of hoods are for the most part a very clever bunch of guys of guys and it seems that quite a few are getting pi55ed off, but their dedication to their marque is commendable, if we had an RH section i'm sure that they and us could learn a lot from each other.

There is no separate section for many of the smaller makes, although RH are by no means small.

As a Formula27 owner I just use the generic sections. For me this is preferred as information is shared with everyone then.

Whatever the individual views of Robin Hoods, they have a good deal of the market so including the owners in Locostbuilders can only benefit the rest of us.

I'd tend to agree... posting in a relevant section based on the problem or question at hand is far more likely to get an answer IMHO. I'm sure I miss many posts that would be of interest purely as I don't frequent any of the specific makers sections. I do use the latest posts bit but I've overlooked stuff purely because the subject didn't shout interesting at me at the time.

I agree with BEC, mid engined sections as they are types not makes an some of the posts are only to do with those types.

Just my 2p.

How about a Furore section - wouldn't be too crowded.





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1
